Make us, O Lord, to have a perpetual fear as well as love of Thy holy Name, for Thou never ceasest to govern those whom Thou foundest upon the solidity of Thy love. Who livest and reignest forever and ever. Amen.

AN ACT OF REPARATION FOR BLASPHEMIES UTTERED AGAINST THE HOLY NAME

O JESUS, Son of the living God, our Saviour and Redeemer, behold us prostrate at Thy feet. We beg pardon, and make this act of reparation for all the blasphemies uttered against Thy holy Name, for all the outrages committed against Thee in the most holy Sacrament of the altar, for all irreverence shown to Thy most blessed and immaculate Mother, and for all the calumnies spoken against Thy Spouse, our holy mother, the Catholic Church. O Jesus, who didst say: “Whatever you shall ask the Father in My Name, that He will do,” we pray and beseech Thee for our brethren who are living in danger of sin, that Thou wouldst preserve them from the seductions of apostasy. Save them who stand over the abyss; give them light and knowledge of the truth, power and strength in the conflict against evil, and perseverance in faith and active charity. And therefore, most merciful Jesus, do we pray to the Father in Thy Name, with Whom Thou livest and reignest in the unity of the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen.
